Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

My biggest problem with sending food back is that now you have to wait while everyone else at your table eats. Then when your food arrives, everyone needs to wait for you while you eat.

This usually isn't too much of an issue if your table has a lot of people because you can just chat and the length of time to eat a meal is higher since you all are talking. But when you're on a date, it's super annoying and awkward.

That's such an American take. I've not once left within half an hour of everyone being finished eating.

You used the egocentric word "everyone" when you should have used the more inclusive word "everyall"

I think it's hitting on with the fact that Americans are super impatient with anything and when they go to a restaurant they sit down they eat and then they leave there's no big wait period of socializing(usually), it also could be because it's frowned upon because we don't pay the waiters livable wages here, so for every minute that we're still sitting and not ordering anything we're taking money out of the Waiters pocket.

That's how ass backwards the US. But no the Tipping structure is apparently a better system lmao
